    Re: My New Nova

    Been a while since the last update, but not done any big jobs as its been too cold. However, we've done one little job.

    One thing I've never been a fan of in the Mk1 is the rear wash/ wipe switch being low down on the dash.
    As with all our other cars it's push back on the washer stalk, so with a bit of wiring and a stalk from a Mk2 Nova, bargain £2 from Billing. I now have it as it should be:

    Re: My New Nova

    I always like seeing older Vauxhalls given a refresh especially when using original and improved parts.
    Are you keeping the wing mounted aerial or going bee-sting?
    Ive a digi dash that would go lovely in her too.

    some people go down the big power route, others down the track day route, others with wild styling.

    yours has well chosen and expertly executed mods in all areas, i like that kind of modifying. the sum of all the additions make it better a better nova than most, its one of my favourites, kudos to you

    And thanks for all the feedback, glad to know I'm doing a good job
